   In my own experiences, I stepped in my dad's shoes when I had started working. 11 hours a day is not easy. I appreciate and understand what my dad does to provide for us. Where Mr.Sahota works is not a easy job, you need strength and need to be good math. When my father took me for the first time, i was shocked and exhausted, but after a while I got used to it and saw why my dad loved his job and realized it isn't easy to make money.

   In the play "Romeo and Juliet", when the audience thinks Lady Capulet isn't nice because she wants Juliet to get married at 13.

She was 13, she doesn't know how to raise a child because she is a child.In Act 1 Scene 3 "I was your mother much upon these years that you are now a maid".The audience didn't know she had another side to her other than partying.

"Sometimes he tried to talk to me through the door, but I didn't answer him."Chris is isn't comfortable anymore.

my experience- in highschool, they are some people you just hate, after a while you start to let go of the hatred and be more forgiving. Chris's mother steps into Mr.Boone's shoes when she realizes that Mr.Boone did everything for Chris and now she has to do it.In chapter 233,"There was a toilet and a bathroom that other people used and Mother had to clean it before I used it or I wouldn't use it and sometimes I wet myself because other people were in the bathroom." Those are some of the things you have to do for Chris. Christopher steps into his parents shoes when he realizes that he's "high maintenance".

 Stepping into someone else's shoes is difficult because you are doing things that you may not do or live with.Walking a mile in someone's shoes can change your perspective because you may start understand on how they things or people work, sometimes it won't change your perspective  at all.
